A Gritty Pop-Rock Track About How It's Okay To Not Be Okay

January - February 2021

|

Female Singapore

A gritty pop-rock track about how it’s okay to not be okay. A throbbing electro-laced tune about finding peace with letting go. A three-part anthology film that’s meant to embody every one of the songs that she’s released since 2019. From mid-January, Narelle Kheng unveils the climax to what she’s been referring to as “the project”, her personal musical endeavour that she started two years ago – and one of the most ambitious and artistic to emerge from the local pop music scene. Noelle Loh gets the famously candid singer- songwriter to share about her creative and emotional journey, and newfound community.

A Gritty Pop-Rock Track About How It's Okay To Not Be Okay

Having a strong and clear identity is a big thing for an artiste, but I’ve never really pandered to that. I’m flighty and fickle and have ADHD. It would explain why as a musician I don’t really stick to a genre. My style always changes because that’s who I am and now that I’m releasing the third and final part to this project, I’ve decided: I’d rather be defined by this mess instead of having a specific style.

WARNING: CONTAINS GRAPHIC CONTENT

Besides bringing in some of the best movies from around the globe (nearly every one is “Certified Fresh” on Rotten Tomatoes), homegrown independent film distributor Anticipate Pictures is known for its hyper-stylish, often-cheeky scroll-stopping artworks promoting said flicks — after all, the company was founded in 2016, when Instagram was starting to seriously blow up.

CINEMA PARADISO

The house of Chanel has been a committed champion of the film world since founder Gabrielle Chanel started dressing the actresses from the United Artists studio at the request of American producer Samuel Goldwyn in the 1930s. Besides styling stars on screen and off, the brand has been an active supporter of international movie festivals, institutions and directors (local auteur Eric Khoo was one of them); has helped to restore classics such as the enigmatic Last Year at Marienbad (1961); and often draws inspiration from cinema. For Cruise 2025/26, it pays homage to the glamour of the silver screen as well as Coco Chanel's decades-spanning friendship with legendary Italian filmmaker Luchino Visconti. Here's an exclusive closeup look at the collection and the many ways it's coded la dolce vita.

CALLING THE SHORTS

The power of a short film goes beyond its ability to pander to shrinking attention spans. As Thong Kay Wee, the programme director of the Singapore International Film Festival, explains, \"the format is often more inclusive because of its lower production cost, giving space for niche stories and creative freedom to exist\", adding that \"historically, short films have always been an integral feature of local cinema\".

DAYS OF BEING WILD

It began life as the Golden Theatre - Singapore's largest cinema when it opened in 1973 – and was transformed 11 years ago by Karen Tan, Sharon Tan and Blaise Trigg-Smith into The Projector. A bold, indie institution residing in Golden Mile Tower, it challenged the rules of movie-going and became the beating heart of the city's alternative film scene. To survive though, The Projector had to be more than just a cinema - and so it evolved into a space for creative risk-taking, subculture and community. Living up to its tag line, \"Not Your Average Cinema\", it rewrote what a film venue could be. Three months on from its unexpected closure this August, co-founder Karen reflects on more than a decade of cinematic rebellion, cultural experimentation and what it meant to build - and lose - a space like no other.
